1 Chronicles 7:24 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 7:24

And his daughter was Sherah
That is, the daughter of Beriah; not an immediate daughter, but a descendant of his, otherwise she could not have reached the times of Joshua, as she did by what follows:

who built Bethhoron the nether, and the upper;
which were cities on the border of the tribe of Ephraim; which the Israelites having taken from the Canaanites, and destroyed, she rebuilt, see ( Joshua 16:3 Joshua 16:5 )

and Uzzensherah;
which was called after her own name, and to distinguish it from another place called Uzzen; though of neither of them do we read elsewhere.
